Pic related, or Bernardo Kastrups books. Really questions your worldview etc.

Here is a very persuasive argument for why NDEs are real:

https://youtu.be/U00ibBGZp7o

It emphasizes that NDErs are representative of the population as a whole, and when people go deep into the NDE, they all become convinced. As this article points out:

https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/mysteries-consciousness/202204/does-afterlife-obviously-exist

>"Among those with the deepest experiences 100 percent came away agreeing with the statement, "An afterlife definitely exists"."

Since NDErs are representative of the population as a whole, and they are all convinced, then 100% of the population become convinced that there is an afterlife when they have a sufficiently deep NDE themselves. When you dream and wake up, you instantly realize that life is more real than your dreams. When you have an NDE, the same thing is happening, but on a higher level, as you immediately realize that life is the deep dream and the NDE world is the undeniably real world by comparison.

Or as one person quoted in pic related summarized their NDE:

>"As my soul left my body, I found myself floating in a swirling ocean of multi-colored light. At the end, I could see and feel an even brighter light pulling me toward it, and as it shined on me, I felt indescribable happiness. I remembered everything about eternity - knowing, that we had always existed, and that all of us are family. Then old friends and loved ones surrounded me, and I knew without a doubt I was home, and that I was so loved."

Needless to say, even ultraskeptical neuroscientists are convinced by really deep NDEs.

"Ordinary Men: Reserve police battalion 101 and the final solution in poland" By Christopher R Browning is a book that will greatly expand your understanding of evil by showing you how evil is not in other people by rather in (You). Also it is a true story.

"The Rape of Nanking" by Iris Chang is another book that will expand your framework of evil by telling you about a massacre that happened in WW2 in japan. The author killed herself because of the research she did for the book.

"The five proofs for the existence of God" by Edward Feser will spoon-feed 5 CLASSICAL arguments for God's existence. This works well after reading the previous book. It also refutes counterarguments and the counterarguments of counterarguments. Modern Arguments for God's existence(like the Kalam Cosmological Arguments) is dogwater in comparison to the classical arguments.

"Atheist Delusions" by David Bentley Hart is also apparently pretty good but I haven't read it yet. Basically anything by David Bentley Hart is good except that one article where he argues for Christian Socialism.

"The Case For the Resurrection of Jesus" by Gary Habermas is a book that lays out all the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus. Spoiler Alert: its not conclusive but any other explanation would have to be extraordinary and thus a leap of faith can be justified.

Anything and everything by Fyodor Dostoevsky and Leo Tolstoy's "Confession" is also a must.

And finally Plato and Aristotle is a must because everything that came after those two builds upon their work or imitates it in some way. Read the Bible as well because it too is at the foundation of western thought.

NDE triggers the release of DMT, no? It's more likely a case of a half and half biological process and also cultural suggestibility
Don't forget that every NDE that has a religious element just so happens to line up with someone's perceived social expectation. You don't have people experiencing some religious after life deity or place that's foreign to them that they've never heard, but to someone that lives where that would be the norm, that becomes the norm for NDE.
It proves nothing it's not logically sound at all

> its not conclusive but any other explanation would have to be extraordinary
I love how christians like to pretend these arguments can only apply to their particular brand. Apply the same gullibility to other myths and legends and get the same result, except now suddenly it’s “different”. Same shit with the countless christian books that argue for “something rather than nothing” and then forget that they’re arguing for some kind of vague deism and jump straight to “haha I proved Jesus is Lord”.
I honestly don’t believe these books are meant to persuade anyone other than the already converted. Even in explicitly proselytizing books the arguments lean so hard on presupposing a christian default they can only really exist to steel doubting christians.

I suppose that discards that but what of the rest?
How would you reconcile the incredibly obvious explanation of it being an immense last hurrah from the brain? An NDE is just that, near death. It represents the brain prior to shutting down but not actually fully shutting down. There's no reason to believe or leave room for a possibility of some external influence when the brain is still creating your consciousness and there's obvious social bias underpinning the idea that there must be something after.
